It has been reported that Dempsey achieves a feeling at his gigs that other artists dream of. He apparently has a fantastic connection with the crowd which makes his gigs an unforgettable experience.
Dempsey started his career seventeen years ago and released his seventh album ‘Soulsun’ in May last year. Dempsey teamed up with an amazing cast of female guest vocalists on the record, who are referred to as ‘the mighty Celtic Warrior High Queens’.
Speaking about the addition of the women, Dempsey commented: ‘It’s nice to feature something softer than my gruff voice all the time. They all create nice contrasts and they each bring something unique to the table.’
